Emperor Mingzong slowly stood up straight, slowly paced two steps back, sat down on the steps in front of the imperial case, looked at Lin Ruo, and asked in a deep voice: "Is he trying to find evidence to help Zhou Zhisheng clear his grievances, or is he trying to find the real culprit behind the scenes who really killed Ding Wen?" ”

The corners of Lin Ruo's mouth rose slightly: "The emperor is wise." But to be precise, Fei Ling planned to help Zhou Zhisheng wash away his grievances first, and then go back to ask Shaoqing for his guilt. It's just that he didn't expect that he found the fourth prince, and also found the real murderer who colluded with Beiqi and poisoned the prince to death. ”

"Who is it?"

"King Ping."

"Impossible!" Emperor Mingzong retorted without hesitation, "King Ping rebelled, was imprisoned in Zongzheng Temple by me, exiled by his relatives, and beheaded by his friends, how could it be him?" ”

"Your Majesty, the Xuanwu changes of the previous dynasty, even if Prince Yin is dead, loyal to his remnants, he has not been completely wiped out!"

Emperor Mingzong looked at the intriguing in Lin Ruo's eyes, and was speechless for a while.

Lin Ruo stretched out his hand, pulled it hard from his hanging right sleeve, and took out two feet of tulle, which was as thin as a cicada's wings. There were dense words written on the thin veil, Lin Ruo knelt forward, presented the smoke to the emperor, and asked meaningfully: "Your Majesty, you never thought that Concubine Xian would lie to you, right?" ”

Emperor Mingzong was stunned, pulled away the cigarette yarn in Lin Ruo's hand, and looked at the words on it carefully with deep eyes, every word on it made him frightened.

Lin Ruo still knelt in front of Emperor Mingzong, and said leisurely: "I never thought that Concubine Xian would lie to me, and even harm me, even if at the beginning, Ah Heng was embarrassed by me in public because of the loss of her two sons one after another, I never thought that the person who instigated her to do this would be Concubine Xian Niangniang." ”

Emperor Mingzong raised his eyes, glanced at Lin Ruo, and continued to look at the shocking charges recorded on the smoke, and his body trembled because of anger or fear, he really didn't expect that there would be such a thoughtful poisonous woman lurking around him, and the concubine who was indisputable and leisurely in the palace had such ability!

She was the one who secretly sheltered Zhou Yuan's mother and daughter in the outer room of Bian'an City; It was she who instigated the former minister's Shangshu Gu Ting's concubine to poison Lin Yuan'er; She was the one who secretly stole the silver to protect the remnants of the exiled King Ping; She is the one who has quietly interacted with the old people of Pingwangfu over the years; Even, the person who sent someone to poison Yan Yi, the son of her adopted daughter Princess Jiajiao, on the Shangyuan Festival, turned out to be her!

The fluttering two-foot soft words clearly explained the ins and outs of these incidents, and also listed relevant witnesses, testimony, and evidence for detailed investigation.

"You...... How do I know that these witnesses were not bought by you, and that these testimonies were not forged by you? ”

Emperor Mingzong's voice trembled a little, but he still stubbornly questioned Lin Ruo. It's not that he doesn't believe it, it's just that over the years, he has experienced many blows such as the unavailability of his loved ones, the inability to recognize his own daughter, and the tragic deaths of Lin Yuan'er and Gu Manxi's mother and daughter.

As he grew older, the feeling that as soon as he turned around, there was a person standing behind him with a gentle smile made Emperor Mingzong feel more and more precious! In the pure land of Qinmei Palace, he doesn't have to worry about the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military sycophants for their own selfish desires, he doesn't have to perfunctory the queen and Shuguifei who calculate his pillow for his son, and he doesn't have to look at those unsuccessful sons who bring disaster to the country and the people......

In Qinmei Palace, accompanied by Concubine Xian, he felt that he was not alone, he was not just the son of heaven in Donglu, the emperor of the people, he was still a person - a mortal with joy and sorrow, sorrow and anger, flesh and blood, seven emotions and six desires, just like all living beings.

A woman who has no mother's family to rely on, no outstanding son to support, and even no favored daughter to compete for favor is the most defenseless - especially, she has no desire to compete for favor.

But now, Lin Ruo told him that the person who had been standing behind him with a gentle smile was actually hiding a knife in his smile, and the Pure Land he thought was actually just an illusion that he had deliberately forged...... He didn't want to believe it!

Lin Ruo lowered his eyebrows and lowered his head, and said lightly: "The emperor might as well wait, wait for the Wing Fire Guards to come back, and listen to them tell them what they have discovered." ”

Emperor Mingzong's heart jumped: "What do you mean, I am beside ...... Have the eyeliner of a concubine? ”

Queen, Shuguifei, Xingfei...... They planted eyeliner next to him, and Emperor Mingzong would not be surprised, but the concubine Xian ...... Why did she have to do that?

"Your Majesty, before Xian Guifei Niangniang gave birth that year, there were good news from the north one after another, but Qin Tianjian saw a bad omen from the stars, the punishment was taboo, and there was a villain, sure enough, the prince who had just given birth to Xian Guifei Niangniang was robbed, and it didn't take long for the bad news of defeat in the north, and the prince Yu was plotted to death."

"You also found the records of Qin Tianjian back then?"

Lin Ruo's face was unwavering, only his eyes were deep, as if he couldn't see the bottom at a glance, and then said slowly, "But the emperor, has the concubine ever told you that there is anything special about the four princes?" ”

Emperor Mingzong "chuckled" in his heart, could it be that the child was born with a defect?

Lin Ruoyu said quietly: "The fourth prince has no defects, it's just ...... There are ominous 'demon lines' on the face. ”

Demons, demon patterns?

Emperor Mingzong's eyes lit up.

He suddenly understood why Concubine Xian did this. As soon as Qin Tianjian saw a bad omen from the stars, a prince with demon lines on his face was born, and his mouth could not be blocked at all; Moreover, not long after, the war in the north suffered another major setback, and blaming all this on a poor boy was a common trick of the sour Confucians.

Wait, speaking of people who have demon tattoos on their faces but don't show their true faces, a person suddenly appeared in Emperor Mingzong's mind: the righteous son of Bai Sanniang in Qinhuai Yangzhou, Bai Que!

Could it be, could it be him?

With the Lin family's increasingly close relationship with the Bai family in recent years, Emperor Mingzong naturally guessed in this direction.

But if he and Concubine Xian's son were Bai Que, why did Concubine Xian have no reaction at all? Just to keep the world from knowing that the four princes who died early have an ominous "demon pattern" on their faces, would they rather not have this son?

In the subconscious of Emperor Mingzong, the gentle and virtuous concubine who has never adapted to the world will be such a ruthless, cold-blooded and ruthless person.

"Because the old people of the Ping Wangfu deceived Xian Guifei Niangniang," Lin Ruo raised his eyelids, "The person who pretended to be Zhou Zhisheng to steal the four princes and dropped the child, and then Ping Wang Yu told Xian Guifei Niangniang soon after that the 'demon lines' on the child's face were caused by almost suffocation at birth and had healed."
